Cellular Sales:
Solutions Engineer Classification Exempt Reports to: IT Enterprise Architect JOB DESCRIPTION Summary/ObjectiveAs a Solutions Engineer, you will serve as a bridge between business stakeholders and technology solutions, applying your expertise to evaluate organizational challenges and determine the most appropriate technical approach. In this role, that focus is specifically directed toward AI/ML technologies — assessing whether problems are best addressed by solutions such as image recognition, ML forecasting, LLM prompting, or agentic workflows, versus a more deterministic or data-driven approach. Cellular Sales is in the early stages of its AI adoption journey, and this role will work closely alongside an Enterprise Architect to establish patterns, evaluate emerging tooling, and develop repeatable solutions that can scale across the organization. The work is intentionally exploratory in nature, with a practical focus on delivering tangible business value at each stage. You will lead discovery conversations with departments, design and build proof-of-concept solutions leveraging cloud AI APIs, serverless architectures, and modern integration patterns, and guide the organization in responsible, effective adoption of AI tooling. You will work across functions to ensure that prototypes are secure, well-governed, and grounded in practical business value before any investment in full-scale development.  Essential Functions<ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Partner with business departments to gather and analyze problem statements, translating operational challenges into clearly defined technical requirements. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Evaluate whether a given problem is best addressed by an AI/ML solution (such as image recognition, ML forecasting, LLM prompting, LLM agents, or retrieval-augmented generation) or by a more appropriate deterministic or rule-based data solution, and clearly communicate that recommendation with supporting rationale. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Design and build proof-of-concept prototypes using cloud AI services (AWS Bedrock, Azure OpenAI, Google Vertex, etc.), cloud-native components such as API gateways, message queues, serverless functions, and managed ML endpoints. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Develop lightweight, functional web UIs to demonstrate prototype functionality to stakeholders, prioritizing clarity and usability over production-readiness. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Implement appropriate authentication, authorization, and safety guardrails in all AI prototypes, including prompt injection defenses, output filtering, rate limiting, and role-based access controls. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Evaluate and select among AI solution patterns — including zero-shot and few-shot prompting, fine-tuning, agentic workflows, multi-modal models, and classical ML pipelines — based on problem fit, cost, and feasibility. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Architect event-driven and API-based integration patterns connecting AI services to existing enterprise systems and data sources. </li></ul><ul style="margin-top: 0in;"><li style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Assess AI capabilities embedded in commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) applications for security risks and operational effectiveness, including evaluating data handling practices, model transparency, vendor access controls, and potential for data exfiltration or unintended disclosure.
